Chapter 388: A Little Sacrifice

But the strength doesn't allow it!

Lin Jiaoyang said silently in his heart.

"That's it, Mo is good enough for this kid, but I didn't expect the friends I made were not ordinary people. ”

The city lord smiled and shook his head.

"The lord of the city has won the prize. ”

Mo Li smiled slightly.

After this incident, the atmosphere of the whole banquet was a lot quieter, after all, no one could take two large baskets of night pearls, and other people's things were not about numbers, but about baskets.

Just ask if you're afraid.

Especially Nia, I can't wait to hide in the cracks of the ground, damn, the lord of the dark market, you can stone him to death with money, this aunt must not hold a grudge.

However, the fact is that Lin Jiaoyang will not take such a small role as him to heart.

After three rounds of drinking, the city lord's gentle and ** gaze swept over the audience and said, "Today, in addition to the birthday of the Yiren, there is one more thing. ”

Speaking of this, his tone was low: "I'm old, the condition of my son Tianqi, most of you know, I've been sick for a long time, and Yiren is also an adult, I don't want me to be bullied after a hundred years, my daughter, my son, so... Today, I want to choose a husband for the Yiren, so that when I go west in the future, he can take care of the Yiren and Tianqi for me. ”

He is a father, and he is old, and he is most worried about his only two children.

However, Luo Tianqi is congenitally deficient, if there is no reliable person, after his death, just the position of the city lord will make everyone fight for it, and a pair of children will only be reduced to funeral objects.

"Father, you will live a hundred years. ”

Hearing the words of the city lord, the Roy people turned pale and their noses were red, and they held the city lord's hand tightly and said, "And Tianqi, it will definitely get better." ”

The city lord patted the back of the Roy's hand, smiled gently, and looked at the crowd in the field.

This time, all the young people he invited were those he was optimistic about, who had not yet been married, he actually knew the thoughts of the Yiren, and what the Yiren liked was the son of Nayun, but there was still a lot of consideration.

"Lord of the city, Nia has liked the Yiren since she was a child, and she will definitely be good to the Yiren and Tianqi's younger brother in the future. ”

The first thing I couldn't help but was Nia, if I married an Iraqi, there would be the entire North Sea behind me.

Besides, the Yiren are beautiful and beautiful, and it is a blessing to be able to marry.

But what he didn't know was that he had been eliminated by the city lord long ago...

"Nia, you still need to grow. ”

The city lord said it very tactfully, what he needed was a person who could take care of the Yiren siblings and rule the North Sea after a hundred years, not an impetuous and clumsy young man.

"I'll prove it to you!" Nia didn't give up.

The city lord shook his head, but looked at Mo Li and said, "Mo Li, are you willing to marry Yiren?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, and the city lord skipped the young handsome man in the audience, and named Mo Li's name.

Of course, the envious, jealous and hateful eyes of the audience turned to Mo Li, why is this kid?

They felt uncomfortable, and Mo Li and a few friends felt even more uncomfortable.

Refuse, their purpose is the moonlight treasure box, how can they borrow the treasure when the skin is torn?

Accept... That's even worse, they can't stay here forever.

"For the sake of stupidity, Mo Li sacrificed it, don't lose it. ”

The prince covered his face with a folding fan and leaned over to Mo Li, and whispered.

The corners of Mo Li's mouth twitched slightly, this is not a question of sacrifice or not, but it is simply impossible...

But now the eyes of the audience are looking at him, if he refuses the city lord in public, I am afraid that it will be impossible to borrow the moonlight treasure box.

The city lord's eyes were full of meaning, waiting for Mo Li's answer, Yi Ren's face was also red, she didn't expect her father to call Mo Li's name, she was even about to scream, she was so nervous.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for Mo Li's answer, and Mo Li's face became more and more ugly, and the atmosphere was a little tense, just when he was about to open his mouth to refuse, Lin Jiaoyang spoke first.

"City Lord, in fact, there is no need to worry, Miss Yiren is only eighteen years old now, and Young Master Tianqi's illness may not be curable. ”

Isn't the root cause of this matter Luo Tianqi's illness?

If Luo Tianqi is good, there will be a successor to the city lord, and there is no need to marry his daughter in such a hurry, and his own son will succeed to the throne, which is much more reassuring than his son-in-law.

"Girl, what do you mean?"

The city lord's eyes flashed, and he looked at Lin Jiaoyang lightly.

Mo Li hesitated for so long, in fact, he already knew the answer.

"I just want to try to see if I can find the cause of Young Master Tianqi. Lin Jiaoyang touched his chin.

"Luo Xi is a rare miracle doctor in the world, even he can't do anything, girl, can you?"

The city lord was not in a hurry to get angry, but seemed to deliberately want Lin Jiaoyang to try it.

"Maybe you can give it a try. Lin Jiaoyang didn't say anything, after all, she didn't know what Luo Tianqi's situation was, if it really didn't work...

Then, Mo Li can only be the son-in-law of the city lord's family.

Lin Jiaoyang thought secretly.

"Okay, when the banquet is over, Miss Lin will take a look at it for Tianqi. ”

The city lord readily agreed, and really didn't mention the matter of Mo Li being a son-in-law.

And many people are relieved because of this, if it is really decided, doesn't it mean that they have no chance at all?

Now at least Mo Li didn't agree, and they can still fight for it.

The only one who was lost was the Roys, and the second half of the banquet was almost soulless, and the city lord didn't say much in his eyes.

The twisted melon is not sweet, and the Yiren will always understand.

Lin Jiaoyang cares very much about the attitude of the city lord, and he has never met her, but he seems to have been favoring her intentionally or unintentionally, and even agreed to her to see Luo Tianqi without much suspicion.

What the hell is going on?

But it's okay, Fang just said that he was looking for a chance to stay, and now that the city lord has spoken, there is no need to find any more reasons.

The banquet did not end until midnight, and most of the day's noise dissipated, and the city lord summoned Lin Jiaoyang and them to the side hall.

"City Lord, I don't know anything, do you know me?"

Lin Jiaoyang frowned.

"Just now there is a mysterious force to probe my mansion, is it you?" The city lord looked at Lin Jiaoyang with deep meaning, but he was not angry.

"You know?" Lin Jiaoyang was taken aback, obviously not expecting to be discovered.

"Miss Lin, I found out that I didn't know that my soul power was still passing, so I sensed your existence. ”

Luo Xi suddenly stepped forward and said.

"It turned out to be you. ”

Luo Xi was originally a divine doctor in the Valley of the Immortal Doctors, and his medical skills were superb, and his cultivation was mainly in the soul aspect, otherwise he would not have had such a trick as soul devouring at the beginning, so it was not impossible for the soul power to be strong.

"Yes, but Tianqi's illness, I can't find out the cause, my body has been explored many times in the past few years, and it is no different from ordinary people, but life has been lost. ”

"So I don't think his illness is in the physical body, but my ability is limited, and I can't release my soul power into his body to find the reason. In the past few years, I have been using soul-repairing elixirs to nourish his soul and hang his life, but it has only slowed down the speed of his life. ”
